Jan 28, 2023 (Nanowerk News) The U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has released its Artificial Intelligence Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0), a guidance document for voluntary use by organizations designing, developing, deploying or using AI systems to help manage the many risks of...

Home > Press > Temperature-sensing building material changes color to save energy The material contains a layer that can take on two conformations: solid copper that retains most infrared heat, which helps keep the building warm; or a watery solution that emits infrared, which can help cool the building. ...

Jan 28, 2023 (Nanowerk News) Researchers discovered a wave-like charge order in a magnetic material with a “kagome” geometric structure and, with key evidence from the Advanced Light Source (ALS), obtained clues to the order’s origins in the material’s electronic structure. By helping to connect certain structures with emergent quantum...

Jan 28, 2023 (Nanowerk News) Just as wearing a new outfit can cause us to assume a different persona, so a chemical tag “worn” by a protein can make that molecule unrecognizable. An entire wardrobe of tags – called protein modifications, because they modify the protein’s original sequence – helps...

Home > Press > Department of Energy announces $9.1 million for research on quantum information science and nuclear physics: Projects span the development of quantum computing, algorithms, simulators, superconducting qubits, and quantum sensors for advancing nuclear physicsAbstract:Today, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced $9.1 million in funding for 13...

Jan 28, 2023 (Nanowerk News) Researchers at EPFL have developed a new technique that can visualize and control the rotation of a handful of spins arranged in a vortex-like texture at the fastest speed ever achieved (Physical Review X, "Imaging the ultrafast coherent control of a skyrmion crystal"). The breakthrough...

Home > Press > Quantum sensors see Weyl photocurrents flow: Boston College-led team develops new quantum sensor technique to image and understand the origin of photocurrent flow in Weyl semimetals A team of Boston College researchers discovered that the photocurrent flows in (illustrated in blue) along one crystal axis of...

Jan 28, 2023 (Nanowerk News) When used as wearable medical devices, stretchy, flexible gas sensors can identify health conditions or issues by detecting oxygen or carbon dioxide levels in the breath or sweat. They also are useful for monitoring air quality in indoor or outdoor environments by detecting gas, biomolecules...
